853 refers to the precinct where Detective Shinnosuke Kamo used to work. However, this was before he accidentally shot a criminal in his custody. After that incident, Shinnosuke is reassigned to a smaller, rural jurisdiction. For ten years, he keeps his nose to the grind, continuing to do great investigative work despite the demotion to a smaller police precinct. Until one day, he is called back to put his detective skills to work again in the 853. (Source: IMDb) Edit Translation

A Hidden Gem
This short, older crime drama is well worth watching. A different crime is solved each episode, and it's interesting to follow the two main leads' opposing investigation methods and see a mutual respect slowly, albeit grudgingly, grow. I especially like how some of the characters change for the better while remaining true to their standards. I found this a much more realistic portrayal than a sudden attitude reversal.While the plot wasn't anything new, it was well executed. The ML's backstory was a little confusing at first, but it was slowly revealed over the eight episodes in a way that made sense.
The actors were well cast and played their roles quite well. You may recognize a few of them from their more recent dramas.
Give it a try. You won't be disappointed.
